Just my opinion, but it's too low at the back. It looks like a tail dragger.Maybe you should lower the front to suit. You'd need a pool ladder to get down into it then

niiiiicee.
Paint the flares black, it'll look so much better. im digging the gaurd mirrors too. dunno how i feel about the long grill badge.
Nice work, those rewinds should look good.

EDIT: have nothing better to do so i thought id give it a photoshop.
also blacked the rewinds and the gaurd mirrors.

It's looking quite sporty. Grandma may not want drive it now being so flashy

I worked on my 1200 a bit today as well. It's a balmly 57 F (14 C) today, maybe the nicest day so far this year.

The jet plugs were leaking a bit, I re-tightened them. I reset the carby float level, it was a bit low, it seems to be running better now.

i like the look of cheaters chop with the black on white, but i think with just the flares done it'll look schweet !!

I like the black flares, but it's a little too tough looking. I wanted more of a clean look, not tough. It's not gonna be that fast, so...

The wheels are off because I want to paint the wheels like a flat charcoal (like Watanabes) before putting them on.

I was looking through my collection of GC10 skyline photos looking at color combos on the cars with bolt-on flares. This combo jumped out at me...

White paint, black flares, gold centered wheels...
